Good hack, but the game still sucks.BlazeHeatnix2019-06-16Version 1.1

If you want to give this game a go, then by all means, use this hack. It fixes some of the biggest flaws in the game. But this just isn't enough to make it good; the base game is still a miserably-designed slog. It's going to take a "Super Pitfall 30th Anniversary Edition"-esque romhack to polish this turd to a mirror sheen.
